Rings!!!

SO happy! Yes yes yes!

The rings finally tuned up at Mums a few days ago, and today me and Yorkie drove down to see her, and to see the rings!

And
they are PERFECT! Mine looks so tiny next to his (it actually fits
inside and rattles round, hee hee hee). I think he got better value for
money than me
although his ring came with instructions and warnings, mine didn't.
Yorkie says it's in case someone who buys a titanium ring and then
breaks their finger while wearing it. It's a bit harder to cut through
a titanium ring than it is a gold one!
So people need warning to take them off if they are going to be doing
something in which they may get an injury... I'm hoping they will NEVER
need cutting!

Mum has them safe and sound at her house. Last
thing I need is for a certain small ginger kitten to find them and then
play with them / lose them / eat them. At Mum's they'll be safe.

This afternoon we took a trip over to the florist to see about the flowers.
And it was the simplest, easiest bit of wedding planning we have done!
She lady understood exactly what I wanted, said it could be done simply
and showed me the extras I can have. Easy!

She also understood
just what I wanted for table decorations, and said "fine" and even
suggested that if we didn't want to buy vases from them as they were
pricey, they have no problems using vases we buy or borrow from the
Hall. GREAT!

We talked button holes and corsages too. Yorkie's
going to be having a Calla for his button to match my bouquet. The
other button holes will be white roses. Mum is considering her corsage,
and I must remember to ask Kate if she wants one providing too. They
are also going to make an arrangement for Jacs to carry, which will
allow her to hold little Mia's hand (or Mia as a whole) if she needs to
keep hold of her.

It's been a good day!

Wedding List.... (OMG)

A new kitchen.... Really! We need one! So I've been saying to people that we'll want either B&Q or Ikea vouchers... Only I can't say which yet because I haven't choosen which one I like best: B&Q Oak Shaker style: ( on froogle ) ( on their site ) Ikea: Tildaholm BECAUSE... our kitchen is REALLY badly laid out, the storage is dropping to bits, the seal round the sink is black and festering, the oven hasn't worked for YEARS (the hob and grill are ok though), the seal on one of thef ridge doors has gone too, and the floor... half tiled, half bare concret! But now I have to choose which one I like best, and get the measurements sorted out, and then get the prices for what I can have in the space we've got... PHEW!

Recipe Review: Hairy Bikers liver & bacon with onions & gravy

I need a bit of comfort food at this time of year. I really love this recipe from The Hairy Bikers:  Liver and bacon with onions and gravy  and freely admit that I have whipped this from the BBC Food website. I follow the recipe (but sometimes chuck some mushrooms in too) and split it four ways at 11 pro points per serving. It's a classic, and even my 6 year old likes liver cooked like this - the 4 & 2 year olds need a little extra ketchup to convince them. The Hairy Bikers’ traditional liver and bacon makes a simple supper packed full of flavour and bursting with vitamins and minerals Ingredients 450g/1lb lambs’  liver , sliced and fully thawed if frozen 25g/1oz  butter 2 tbsp  sunflower oil 4 tbsp  plain flour 1  onion , halved lengthways and sliced 125g/4½oz rindless streaky  bacon  rashers, each cut into 4–5 pieces 1  beef stock  cube 500ml/18fl oz  jus t-boiled water 1–2 tsp tomato  ketchup salt and freshly ground  black pepper Preparation method Rinse the liver in a cola
